Modern Sample Prep for Organic Contaminants: PAHs, PFAS, MOSH/MOAH in Food
Food & Feed Sample Preparation Webinar Series
Ensuring food and feed quality requires reliable determination of both contaminants and nutrients, yet sample preparation remains one of the most challenging and time-consuming steps in the analytical workflow. This webinar series introduces modern approaches to digestion and extraction that improve data quality, reduce reprocessing, and increase laboratory productivity. Through four dedicated events, covering heavy metals, organic contaminants, macro/trace minerals, and nutritional parameters such as fats, FAMEs, and amino acids, participants will discover optimized, practical workflows tailored to real-world food and feed testing.
Session: Modern Sample Prep for Organic Contaminants: PAHs, PFAS, MOSH/MOAH in Food
Organic contaminants in food, such as PAHs, PFAS, and MOSH/MOAH, require extraction workflows that are efficient, reproducible, and compliant with regulatory methods. This webinar showcases microwave-assisted extraction using microwave technologies to streamline sample preparation while reducing solvent use and improving recoveries. We will discuss best practices for preventing contamination, handling lipid-rich matrices, and managing PFAS-specific requirements. Attendees will learn how advanced extraction technology supports reliable quantification of these high-profile contaminants across diverse food products.
